Regarding information sharing, not quite. Covered entities (term of art in HIPAA), which include providers (and also payers!) including both the lab and your doctor, do not need yo…

That's good—you guys should come out to visit sometime!

I agree that programming language can be a better (denser, more precise) encapsulator of intent than natural language. But the converse is more often true; natural language is a de…

Very cool app. Is there a way to periodically import from a Google Sheets spreadsheet? I track a bunch of things there on a daily basis and would love to have those pulled into thi…

"(…) They can be used to make containers because they are thicker than conventional cellulose-based materials. The new material is expected to replace plastics for this purpose, as…

If there were an MCP to connect to, say, a running Chrome tab with your frontend running on it, that would allow an agent to both visually inspect and interact with the webpage as …

1. Fracking tech allows us to drill horizontally, and enhanced geothermal systems rely on this to get that surface area exposure at 7+ km below the surface 2. The steam's extremely…

Same, I have a free account from having signed up when it was something like $8 for life, the core features actually seem to work pretty well (though I have had some documented sea…

I absolutely love Pinboard, seems like hiring one person to attend the support queue would solve >80% of the problem.

That's awesome, I can give him a ton of recommendations over email when he responds :)

How does the Substack App fit into the picture with apps like Matter and Instapaper (and their integrations with programs like Readwise?) Is this for the more casual / sane reader,…
